Captain's Table Punta Gorda FL

Captain's Table has shrugged off Hurricane Charley" SW Ontario Aug 2006

Ever since Friday the 13th, August 2004, when a force 4 hurricane devastated Punta Gorda, locals adopted a new motto: "Hurricane Charley is nature's way of telling you it's time to re-decorate". We found this great restaurant on bestportcharlottedining.com What a find! The Captain's Table, heavily damaged by the storm, has taken that motto to heart. It has rebounded wtih style, and added a new deck for diners who prefer open air eating - or who want to smoke. The menu is largely unchanged from "pre-Charley", with an emphasis on seafood. The restaurant still provides the best panoramic views of Charlotte Harbor available on the Peace River. The premium paid for those views is fairly high, as all menu items are priced $5 higher than you might expect at a restaurant without the scenic setting. We did not find a coupon on the swfloridarewards.com However, the service is usually exemplary, and this restaurant is recommended for special occasions. Try the lobster ravioli in mushroom brandy sauce!
